Neighborhood Caucus/Election

As all of you know, my mom is running for Utah House of Representatives. Tonight are the neighborhood caucus's. Mom is going to do great. WE won't know until probably may, the results of the caucus. I know none of you (besides Grandma and Grandpa) that read this blog are in our district, but VOTE BECKY! She's the right choice for your voice!

Yesterday was Sarah's Sweethearts dance at her school.  This time, she helped quite a bit with the dress. She took a boy named Michael Hughes.  The look we were going for was 60's slash 50's dress. It turned out to be super cute. On Saturday, mom and dad went to Nordstroms to look for some shoes. The pair Sarah wanted weren't there but my mom and dad decided to play a little joke. When they came home, they explained to her that the shoes she wanted didn't come in her size and so she would have to wear the ones they bought her. The shoes were hot pink patent shoes with a peep toe and they were super cute... the only downfall being that they had a 3 inch heel. Sarah's reply was "I don't want to wear high heels". My parents went along with this for about 5 minutes and then my mom said "OR, you could wear these shoes." It was so funny. The minute she saw the other box, she became a lot more relaxed. 

Suzuki Graduation

Yesterday was the annual Suzuki Graduation. Beata was playing in the performance for her first time, performing the twinkles. She didn't make any mistakes and she was so cute with her hair all curled. Rin graduated from Level 5, La Folia. That piece is super hard and difficult and so Rin gets extra brownie points! She looked really cute, too, wearing a brand new shrug and skirt she got for the upcoming valentines day dance at her school. I graduated from Mozart Rondo. My mom told me to really perform, so I tried to. I was trying really hard to stand up straight. This was my very last graduation. Beata still has a long way to go though. We had a really fun time.

Jr. Prom #2!

Just a few days ago, Sarah went to Jr. Prom with a friend of hers, Seth Cope. Her dress was purple, as you can see, and it was very puffy on the skirt. Her hair was round brushed in and she looked really cute. There was no day activity this time but for dinner, they ate at Buco de Beco (or something that sounds like that). Their dance was held at the tower in Rice Eccles Stadium. It sounded like she had a ton of fun.

Trick Monsters!

Here is a link to a really cute video made by Camille. Ethan and Boon like to go skiing and do tricks on the snowboard railings. Ethan's signature move is the grinds on his ski's. Boon's signature move is probably approaching the jumps with great speed. If you see, Ethan's ski's get caught, causing him to hit a major biff. It was really cool. They have so much fun skiing together and doing wacky tricks.

Update Pictures

I have decided that Matthew hasn't been on this blog yet at all and so now it starts. My mom was making a Christmas Card and here are some pictures of Matthew and one of his favorite Companions, Elder Ajirogi. Here are some other cute pictures we put on our Christmas Card. 

Christmas Eve

Christmas eve was held at the Edwards home as usual. We all went sledding (all meaning the boys, gary, and steve). It started to snow very hard. It was very exciting! After people got here, we ate and then we started the nativity. It was so much fun to act out the scene that is the reason for this season. First we went through it just reading the scriptures and singing. Then we acted it out. After we finished, people left and then it was time for us to wrap some gifts. My mom brought out gifts for other people and put Catrinel, Sarah, and I to work. We were wrapping till about 1:15 A.M.! It was very fun. Then we went to sleep. It was such a fun day!
